It really is that simple. My cobra used to do the same crap when it had the tokicos on it.If you dont have cash to spend on both the springs you want AND the bilsteins, get the bilsteins. Sell the Tokicos while you can. Blown struts/shocks arent worth dick... at least right now, you can get a few bucks for them and defray the costs of the new ones.Another thing to consider is that those SS springs are REALLY low... like right on the borderline of TOO low. So while my cobra rides really good on the smooth roads of So Cal with some harshness or bottoming in the rear area only on the VERY worst roads here, the ride you get on the crappy roads out east may still be a bit rough. But you shouldnt get the harshness you are getting now. If the dampers dont correct it as much as you'd like, look towards getting a slightly taller spring, H&R Race is whats on my GT. BTW, that snubber isnt really that big a deal... you can cut your stock one by about a .5 - .75 inch if you like. I've done it both ways on my cars.</blockquote>
